| Every year goes by
|
| Never ending change and I start to miss the ones I’ve kept the closest to me
|
| (Their names spoken now in memory)
|
| I’ve always tried to carry my words without deceptive cause but clear objective
|
| I’ve shed the youth I lived in
|
| My head feels so heavy my heart follows suit
|
| Is this what I wanted to turn into?
|
| You don’t have to stay
|
| And wonder who I’ve become
|
| I’m the story of the one you used to love
|
| I’m the story of the one you used to love
|
| Every time that I never seem to answer why I’m ignoring all the calls from home
|
| to be alone
|
| A foreign voice or dial tone?
|
| I’m ignoring all the calls from home to be alone
|
| A foreign voice or dial tone?
|
| My head feels so heavy, my heart follows suit
|
| Is this what I wanted to turn into?
|
| You don’t have to stay
|
| And wonder who I’ve become
|
| (You don’t have to stay, you don’t have to stay)
|
| Your eyes look so heavy, I had to concede
|
| Is this what you wanted to prove to me?
|
| You don’t have to stay and wonder who I’ve become
|
| Who have I become?
|
| The story of the one you used to love
|
| I’m the story of the one you used to love
|
| I spent the morning looking down at the baggage claim
|
| With yesterday, your hand in mine
|
| Sitting as you laid a world away
|
| And now the words soak into my head
|
| That your chest has stilled
|
| And I’ll never see you again
|
| I’ll never see you again
|
| I swear to God I tried to come back home
|
| Be by your side, to hold you close
|
| While the sorrow spread to divide us both
|
| I swear to God I tried, I swear to God I tried
|
| I’m the story of the one you used to love
|
| (I didn’t want this)
|
| I’m the story of the one you used to love
|
| (I didn’t want this)
|
| I swear to God I tried to come back home
|
| Be by your side, to hold you close
|
| While the sorrow spread to divide us both
|
| I swear to God I tried, I swear to God I tried
|
| I tried |
